Where to stay in Piedrahíta
Piedrahíta is a small town, so staying central is your best bet. Town Centre puts you within easy walking distance of the markets and the main square, where most of the action happens.
For a comfortable base, Hotel Duque de Alba is a well-known option in town and keeps you close to everything. If you prefer something with a rural feel, there are also a few casa rural options on the outskirts that make for a pleasant stay while still keeping the town easily reachable.

Street markets in Piedrahíta
The Piedrahíta Weekly Market is the larger of the two, with 40 stalls spread across an outdoor setting and running once a week. Shoppers will find fresh fruit, fresh vegetables, clothing, and footwear alongside handicrafts, making it a practical stop for both everyday needs and browsing local craft work.
The Piedrahíta Goyesca – Craft and Agroalimentary Fair takes a more food-focused approach, concentrating on fresh fruit, fresh vegetables, meat and poultry, fish and seafood, and cheese and dairy. It also runs weekly outdoors and is a good option for picking up quality agroalimentary products in one place. Nearby El Barco de Ávila holds its own market days if you are planning a wider trip through the comarca.
Planning your visit
Both markets are held outdoors, so checking local weather before visiting is worthwhile, particularly outside summer months. The Ayuntamiento de Piedrahíta website is the most reliable source for any schedule changes or special fair dates tied to the Goyesca event.
